The modern Garhwali story ‘Kalyajai Fans’ by Chinmay Sayar deals with two main themes.- emotional problems of parents due to inter caste marriage by Garhwalis and the aloofness of aged parents in rural Garhwal. the main question of story is "Should Uttarakhandis oppose Inter caste-marriage? "

Dinwani works in city and marries with non Garhwali girl. His father becomes sad and angry that marriage should be held in own caste. Father of Diwani dies due to emotional shock. Diwani does not visit to village after the death of his father but sends money for his widow mother. His widow mother asks to village person coming from city about her son and grand children but not for her daughter in law. The non Garhwali wife of Diwani is also indifferent to her mother in law and parental village of her husband.

The story subject is definitely contemporary and is the subject of talk of the town. There were opportunities of creating immense tension and twist in the story. However, Chinmay Sayar uses plain style in depicting such much discussed subject among Garhwalis and Kumaunis in these days. Chinmay Sayar is successful in raising the question of should Garhwali or Kumaunis oppose inter caste marriages?
